During my association with TheOneRing.net I have often felt very fortunate to know great people and be in great places. Sometimes I have been lucky enough to have my camera along.
Out of that vast TORn photo library that includes digital images, and old scratched negitives, I put a few images together with some music from Arjan Kiel, (with thanks to fan film ‘Born of Hope,’) to pay tribute to the whole community of TheOneRing.net.

Happy, happy birthday to TheOneRing.net!! TheOneRing.net domain name was created exactly 10 years ago today and what an awesome journey it’s been.

A reminder, the celebration on our message boards is still going strong, with many fun activities and many well wishes from our VIP friends. So please join us. Here’s to ten more wonderful years!!

So for any of you Canadian Ringers out there that live in or near Calgary, Alberta (like me!) who want to see Sean Astin and some other really cool guests, I suggest you come, it’ll be great!
